Marist College Canberra is a Catholic school for boys located in the Suburb of Pearce in Canberra. The school has an enrolment of some 1600 boys and is celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2008. An Outward Bound program has been part of the school’s curriculum since 1982.
Marist Canberra runs an extensive, rigorous Outdoor Education program in which all students participate. Camps are conducted for boys in Years 5 to 10. These camps follow a variety of patterns with an increasing level of challenge and culminate in the ten-day Outward Bound program. These outdoor activities are designed to complement the religious and academic development of the students, and to promote qualities of self-reliance, initiative, cooperation, confidence, leadership, and the capacity to deal with significant emotional and physical challenges.
Marist Canberra also offers The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme to students in years 9 to 12 on weekends, as an additional avenue to pursue those objectives.
